Walter Dröscher is a retired physicist who has worked on developing Heim Theory. In 1980, Dröscher was introduced to the reclusive German physicist Burkhard Heim and became one of the few physicists to collaborate with Heim.
Dröscher clarified the correspondence between Heim Theory and the Standard Model, particularly the purported ability to accurately calculate the masses of atomic particles.[1]
In 2005, a team consisting of Dröscher and Jochem Häuser (University of Applied Sciences in Salzgitter, Germany; Physicist & Professor of Computer Science) received one of the 21 Best Paper awards that year from the AIAA for their application of Heim-Dröscher theory to space propulsion.[2] [3] It is also noteworthy, that this particular award was delivered by the subcommittee of which Häuser was a member. Since 1998 Häuser is senior member of the AIAA, in 2004 he was elected member of the working group Nuclear and Future Flight Propulsion.[4]
The Heim-Dröscher theory is not to be confused with such metrics as Alcubierre drive. And like other Faster Than Light theories, it is not without its critics.[5] [6]
